Players to Watch
F - Ryan Duncan, Sr., North Dakota - 2007 Hobey Baker Award winner, has put up the numbers in the past, now he must lead.
F - Colin Wilson, So., Boston University - The highest pick among college players in last June's NHL Draft, decided to stay in school when Nashville could not assure him an NHL spot.
F - Garrett Roe, So., St. Cloud - Petered out near the end of last season, after putting up big numbers.
F - James vanRiemsdyk, So., New Hampshire - Decided to stick around in college, the highest NHL pick to do so. Really picked up his game towards the end of last season, has the potential to be dominant.

No Sioux on the 2008-09 Preseason All-CHN Team
CHN released their all-CHN team. I don't have a problem with these teams for most but I guess I would have to say that I am shocked that James vanRiemsdhyke or Colin Wilson not being on one of the first two teams is kind of puzzling, but each his own. I expect huge things out both of these two sophmores. I think one could also make the same case for Duncan or Roe. Oh well.

Duncan is possibly the most over-rated player in college hockey.
ReplyDeleteCome one now... Heck last year still Duncan almost scored as many points as the top three UMD Bull Dog points getters. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised Duncan got left off as well. He looked pretty good against Manitoba tonight. Granted it was just Manitoba but it's a good start nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteYeah, he had some great linemates, didn't he?
ReplyDeleteEven I could put up points skating with Wayne Gretzky
ReplyDeleteBoosh I am not so sure that rank Amateurs like us could score that many goals even with Oshie and Toews. I haven't putthe skates on since my undergraduate days in 1995.
